David Oreck has passed away at age 99. Many folks here don’t like the Oreck Vacuum but I have to say that David truly believed in his product. He stood behind the product and knew how to market it. I have to say I have a model XL21 and I believe it cleans very well. It is easy to use. I...

Just recently purchased the home version of the Rug Doctor carpet cleaner. Hands down better than any Hoover or Bissell I have used. The quality of the product is far superior. Air flow is as described about 75% better. The scrubbing brush action also seems to be of good design. Far better...

As a young child my parents were really bad alcoholics and we had a woman by the name of Florence that would babysit for us right after supper so mom and dad could go drinking...now this was not once or twice a week but almost every night except Sundays because alcohol couldn't be served on...

A friend from church was cleaning out her moms home and found this. I cleaned it up and plan on selling it for her. I was amazed at the air flow this machine has. I put on a new cord and switch and she runs like new. When I first fired her up, she was so quiet and had little air flow, check...

We stopped in a Department store on downtown St. Petersburg...the first vacuum I saw on the trip
